Running for Gregor

Date posted: June 16, 2018

Jacob completed his Ultra (38 miles!) run at the end of May – a massive challenge and a huge tribute to his friend Gregor, who is missed greatly. Thankyou so much Jacob, raising funds for us along the way and to all those who have supported Jacob and donated on his behalf.

Jacob says: “So I finished, a little slower than I’d hoped, final time 10:42. Gregor Rutherfordwould have been having a good laugh at me negotiating the descents with bum knees. Big thanks to Jago Miller and Jessica Sutherland for all the help on the day! So far we have raised around £1300 for the gamekeepers welfare trust”. Now up to £1531.00!!
